Are protons and electrons the same number

2 answers:

Yes they are but the number of electrons can change due to different reasons.
For example ionization energy can heat an electron and remove it from its atom
An electron can move from one atom to one atom so that they can neutralize their charges

What is the mass, in grams, of a liquid having a density of 1.50g/mL and a volume of 3500mL

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

5,250g

Explanation:

Density = Mass / Volume

*Note: mass = x

1.50g/mL = x / 3500mL

multiply 3500mL on both sides

1.50g/mL * 3500mL = 3500mL(x) / 3500mL

cancel units

x = 5250g

If a neutral atom has 24 electrons and 26 neutrons how many protons does it have?

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The number of protons in the atom of the neutral element will also be 24.

Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom.

Electrons are the negatively charged particles

Neutrons do not carry any charges at all

Now, in a neutral atom, the charge is balanced and the number of protons and electrons are the same in the atom.

So, since we have been given that the atom has 24 electrons, the number of protons will be 24.
